Sudan, known for its historical richness and archaeological wonders, has become an emerging destination in international tourism. Its blend of ancient heritage and modern attractions may appeal to a segment of South Sudan's 11 million population.
Sudan is currently considered a challenging destination for tourists, including those from South Sudan. According to the Global Peace Index, Sudan ranks 159th out of 160 countries, while South Sudan ranks 158th, indicating similar levels of safety. In terms of crime statistics, the murder rate in Sudan is 5.1 per 100,000 people, which is lower than South Sudan's rate of 14.9. However, various organized crime indices suggest that both countries face significant challenges. For instance, Sudan scores 6.5 for mafia groups and 7.5 for crime networks, compared to South Sudan's scores of 4.5 and 8.0, respectively. Overall, both countries have high levels of crime and violence, making travel risky. Caution is advised for anyone considering visiting Sudan from South Sudan.
